Xu Jianmin said enviously, "Xiao Jing, there are not many people in my life who can convince me, but now I am completely impressed by your master. Such a vision, wow, no wonder you can inherit such a large fortune from your master. Oh no, I can't say any more, or I will be envious and jealous and crazy! Why didn't I meet such a good master when I was young?"
Li Long laughed and patted Xu Jianmin on the shoulder and said, "Second brother, you have expressed the feelings of my brothers."
The two brothers looked at each other and laughed again. Xu Jianmin said as if he was relieved: "Come on, Xiaolong, let's take out our anger on these raw stones. I have to cut this stone in half!"
"Yeah, I think this is a good idea. I'll have to find a stone to cut it in half!"
Don’t be fooled by these two old brothers’ boasting, as if they don’t take these jade raw stones seriously. But when it comes to cutting the stones, these two old brothers immediately become discouraged.
"I say, Old Ten, if this stone is no good, let's just wipe it off first. Look here, you can vaguely see fog when a strong light shines in, and the color of this fog seems a little bit wrong. I guess there might be red jade or yellow jade in it. If I cut the jade flesh with this knife, I guess I'll have to go out and find a car to compete with it to see who has the tougher head..."
The uncle also came over and observed carefully for a long time under the strong light, then nodded and said: "Second brother, my opinion is the same as yours. This piece of material cannot be cut. We have to wipe it first. I think it's best to wipe it from the place where the moss is more dense..."
The two brothers met and became sworn brothers in the early 1990s. They were only 15 or 16 years old at that time. The uncle was the younger, the tenth child, and Xu Jianmin was the second child.
Looking at the two old brothers discussing something, Yang Jing smiled slightly, took Gege and walked away.
Although my uncle and Xu Jianmin are not masters of stone cutting, but faced with such carefully selected old mine rough materials, especially materials with such good performance, if they don’t know how to cut the stones, they will really be ashamed of the experience they had in playing with jade in the past.
Therefore, Yang Jing was not worried that the two brothers would break the material. As for whether the material would break, that was impossible, because Yang Jing knew very well that the rough material that his uncle had just picked up contained a large piece of glass pigeon blood red jadeite...
It has to be said that the stone-selecting masters in the jade mining areas have very sharp eyes. They dare not say that they can judge the quality of a piece of rough material 100%, but they are definitely much better than those so-called stone-gambling masters at the jade public auction. After all, these stone-selecting masters have been working in this industry since childhood, and the amount of rough materials they have seen in their lives is really huge, which is definitely not comparable to those so-called stone-gambling masters at the public auction.
It is no exaggeration to say that if these stone selection masters were allowed to participate in the public auction, there would be no one else in the Myanmar jade public auction.
Yang Jing's rough materials were all selected by seven or eight experienced stone selection masters, so they are naturally the best of the best. When these stone selection masters were selecting rough materials, perhaps a few rough materials escaped their sharp eyes because of their appearance, resulting in pearls being missed, but that was a rare occurrence and could only be called accidental.
The vast majority of materials with good performance will definitely not escape the selection of these stone selection masters.
For the stone selectors who were engaged in selecting rough materials in the jadeite mining area in northern Myanmar in the 1980s and 1990s, ice, high ice and even glass types were the good materials in their minds. The rest, let alone glutinous types, even hibiscus types and golden silk types were not considered good materials in their eyes. Therefore, the rough materials left by Yang Jing were almost all the rough materials that the stone selectors considered to be good materials...
The most important thing is that when Yang Jing transformed into the two jade mines that Cole Smith obtained in the Damukan Mine, the mining level of those mines was still very basic, unlike the crazy mining of the jade mines twenty years later, which used mechanized mining methods to mine directly to the fourth, fifth and even sixth layers. At that time, it was purely manual mining, and the first layer of most mines was not even mined, so the probability of the appearance of top-quality raw materials at that time was much higher than it is now.
"Come on, wife, I'll teach you how to cut a stone. Maybe you can cut a glass-type jadeite today."
"Really? Can I also make good jade?" Gege seemed a little excited.
"Of course, don't you see whose place this is? In your husband's territory, if you, as the boss's wife, can't make a piece of glass jade, wouldn't it be embarrassing for your husband? Come, I will teach you how to cut the stone. We must make a good piece of jade today..."
